For those who came in late, Applause Entertainment’s Undekhi on SonyLIV, is about the arrogance of wealth. This affliction makes the Atwal family believe no law of the land is applicable to their lives.

The arrogance of unlimited wealth is on full display as the Atwal family prepares in scenic Manali for the Big Fat ‘Greed’ Wedding of their heir apparent Daman to his girlfriend Teji (Anchal Singh), who before the series clambers to a kickass climax, will display unexpected pluck in taking on her socio-pathic in-laws. More of the same, and yet at the top of the game…That just about sums up the second season of 2020’s well-played cat-and-mouse crime thriller about a super-rich wedding, a murder, and the affluent arrogance of a family that thinks crime is the only way to stay wealthy.

It’s a world where people get shot randomly, remorselessly. The patriarch of...

Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein season 2 ended with some cliffhangers, a time jump, and more excitement than most series have in a whole season. One of the many Hindi language dramas that have come to Netflix in recent years, Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein is a romantic crime thriller that premiered in January 2022, with season 2 coming almost two years later in November 2024. The series stars Tahir Raj Bhasin as Vikrant Singh Chauhan, a man living a dangerous life in India who has been forced into a marriage with the daughter of a crime lord named Akheraj (Saurabh Shukla).

The series dabbles in many of the familiar tropes that viewers have come to expect from Tollywood and Bollywood productions and restructures them for something unique and fun. Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein season 1 ended with Vikrant hiring a mercenary to kill his wife, Purva (Anchal Singh), only for the mercenary to double-cross Vikrant to...

Ye Kaali Kaali Aankhein starts out as an indulgent binge-worthy crime drama that grows more and more outlandish as the series progresses. This is a small town love story that is far removed from the modern concept of love. The themes that the show deals with are love, power, toxicity, politics, loyalty, revenge, and murder. In an effort to explore these themes, there are countless characters introduced to this show that add to the drama. Ye Kaali Kaali Aankhein now has a second season because there’s always an audience for this kind of romantic crime drama.

Anchal Singh, as Purva Awasthi, is the daughter of a powerful politician, Akheeraj Awasthi, and she never stops herself from using his position for her own benefit. She had been in love with Vikrant from a very young age and had moved away for many years. She comes back and...

Starring Shweta Tripathi, Anchal Singh and Tahir Raj Bhasin in the lead roles, the second season of Netflix’s Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein is pretty much a disaster. The shocking, slightly unusual premise might have garnered an audience in the first season, but unfortunately, the show misses an opportunity to deliver something exciting this time around. A girl obsessed with a boy who strongly believed that she always brought him bad luck was a silly premise that did not deserve to or even have the potential to return with another season, and it seems the creators were clueless about how the story should progress. It was a struggle for me to sit through the six episodes that at times made no sense at all.

The protagonist, Vikrant Singh Chauhan, had planned to murder his wife, Purva Awasthi, in season one. But instead of killing her, the contract killer Vikrant had hired abducted her.

The makers of ‘Undekhi’ starring Harsh Chhaya, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Surya Sharma, and Ankur Rathee unveiled the trailer for Season 3 on Friday, in which ‘Papa Ji’ delves deeper into the realm of darkness and deception.

The show features Harsh as Papa ji, Dibyendu as Dsp Barun Ghosh, Surya as Rinku Atwal, and Ankur as Daman.

This trailer takes viewers on a massive ride of emotions and thrill as the story progresses spine-chilling bloodshed. As the Atwal family unleashes chaos, grappling with family politics and confronting their concealed past becomes a massive challenge.

Thrilling encounters, a battle for ultimate supremacy, and long-buried mysteries resurfacing to haunt them, this season promises to showcase an electrifying fight for power amidst a relentless force of revenge.

Sharing the trailer, the makers wrote: “Papaji is back and so is his past! As he fights to reclaim his power, new predators emerge from the shadows. With every ally turned adversary,...

What a time it is turning out to be the world of Indian web series on the Ott platform. Considering this is the lockdown period, thankfully the ones which are deserving are indeed finding quite some eyeballs and attention for themselves. Undekhi is one such web series that spreads across 10 episodes and turns out to be such an engaging dramatic thriller that you don’t have a choice but to binge watch it from start to finish.

Inspired by the true events from a few years back when during a celebratory event a drunk man shot a female dancer from a close range, hence taking her life, Undekhi covers a lot more distance than what the premise may suggest. An excellent mix of fact & fiction, it goes beyond picking up from the headlines that stunned the nation and actually brings to fore the sheer audacity of a section of rich...
